Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: June 12-14, 1995, San Francisco The first international conference on multiagent systems is organized as a joint effort of the North American Distributed Artificial Intelligence community, the Japanese Multiagent and Cooperative Computing community, and the European Modeling Autonomous Agents in a Multiagent World community, with support from AAAI and sanctioned by ECCAI. The Proceedings cover a broad spectrum of perspectives including artificial life, communications issues, and negotiation strategies. Topics cover: * Agent Architectures * Artificial Life (from a multiagent perspective) * Believable Agents * Cooperation, Coordination, and Conflict * Communcation Issues * Conceptual and Theoretical Foundations of Multiagent Systems * Development and Engineering Methodologies * Distributed Artificial Intelligence * Distributed Consensus and Algorithms for Multiagent Interaction * Distributed Search * Evaluation of Multiagent Systems * Integrated Testbeds and Development Environments * Intelligent Agents in Enterprise Integration Systems and Similar Types of Applications * Learning and Adaptation in Multiagent Systems * Multiagent Cooperative Reasoning from Distributed Heterogeneous Databases * Multiagent Planning and Planning for Multiagent Worlds * Negotiation Strategies (in both competitive and cooperative situations) * Organization, Organizational Knowledge, and Organization Self-Design * Practical Applications of Multiagent Systems (enterprises, robotics, sensing, manufacturing) * Resource Allocation in Multiagent Systems * Social Structures and their Signfiicance in Multiagent Systems * User Interface Issues for Multiagent Systems.
